Barbecued Tempeh
Tempeh is a wonderful meal. Last night we had barbecued tempeh over basamati rice topped with guacamole. Erich makes a spicy homemade barbecue sauce, to avoid corn syrup which seems to be in everything. Basamati rice is my favorite… so much better than conventional rice and available in white and brown. Avocado is a wonderful addition to any meal – nutritious and delicious. Tempeh is full of nutrients:
Tempeh is a complete protein food that contains all the essential amino acids. The soy protein and isoflavones have many health benefits. Isoflavones strengthen bones, help to ease menopause symptoms, reduce risk of coronary hearth disease and some cancers. Tempeh maintains all the fiber of the beans and gains some digestive benefits from the enzymes created during the fermentation process. Tempeh is an excellent meat substitute and can be served many ways.
